I listened to this in two sittings and definitely couldn't put it down after we met the 'second stranger'!
Unfortunately, when the real identity was revealed, my interest did come down. I don't know whether I had lost my touch, but Troy's identity being revealed shocked me! Though with the stereotype of body types with prisoners working out in prison to kill time, I did have a strong suspicion that the ripped person was indeed NOT the police officer, but their behaviours did shake it up with who was who! The ending was unrealistic and made no sense to me, but overall, it was enjoyable!

I rated 3.5 at first, but I thought they did a good job of creating a tense atmosphere and keeping my attention, so bumped to 4.
